Stellenbosch: the homes, the climate and the workshops
Every January, student digs around Stellenbosch need couches repaired and recovered before the new academic year, and that rhythm sits alongside quieter work on the town's oldest furniture. Oak-lined streets such as Dorp Street hold Cape Dutch and Victorian houses with riempie chairs, yellowwood benches and old wingbacks that need careful restoration. Wine farm tasting rooms, restaurants and guesthouses in the valleys recover dining chairs, booths and stoep cushions before the summer season. Offices at Technopark send office chairs for repair. Families in Kayamandi, Idas Valley and Cloetesville recover lounge suites. Workshops sit in Plankenburg and in home studios, and hot summers fade fabric quickly.
Typical upholstery fabric requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners and tenants: a family couch, dining chair seats or a headboard in a colour that suits the lounge
- Offices and businesses: hard-wearing contract fabric for reception couches, boardroom chairs and waiting room benches
- Churches, schools and halls: durable fabric by the roll for church pew cushions, school halls and theatre seats
